This series is a new comfort read! And Honor blew me away!
Xander and Teddy were always end game, everyone saw it. Even her past?! MIL saw it before her son passed away. Teddy and her previous husband had been together since HS, he tragically died in an accident while out on call. Teddy moves closer to her brother while pregnant with baby number 3 with Logan. Teddy is one hell of a mother. To lose a husband while pregnant I could never imagine. Xander has always been in love with Teddy, but never expressed any interest because he’s a total green flag angel baby! But with the loss of Logan he steps up to help her wherever she will let him. But feelings and attraction quickly grow. I mean the man delivered her baby on her bathroom floor from another man, and he still wanted her…baby if she didn’t hubby him up I would have in a heartbeat.
I see a lot of reviews who don’t like the fact she moved on so quickly after her husband’s death. After 15 years a yearish doesn’t seem that long especially only after a few months of giving birth. My thing is I probably would feel that way in real life. However, this author does a phenomenal job with this topic in my opinion. You see the struggle Teddy and Xander both go through on this topic. It’s raw and real. He doesn’t push her (typically), and she is going to therapy and processing everything. But the author wrote this relationship in a way we know they were always meant to be. Like Xander says he just had to wait for his time. In the end if Logan had not passed, I feel something else would/could have broken up the marriage. They could have divorced or something, but that can get nasty. With this plot line, he’s loved, cherished and remembered. This is just how it played out, to me Teddy moving on does not dampen his memory. His own mother told her she knew Teddy and Xander were meant for each other. And again Teddy is 31 a single mom of 3 and Xander is 42-43 never been married and wants a life with her and the kids. Time won’t change that for them. Why should they wait and draw it out. They are all happy including the kids, to me that’s what matters most!
Absolutely beautiful story and perfect end to an incredible series!
